Chris
A very restful property with a friendly host. We would like to have stayed longer.
Ruth
The hosts were wonderful. They were extremely responsive and met our every need. Breakfast was always delicious and was served when we wanted it. Michael also shared very helpful insider travel tips and even taught us a few words of Irish (he's fluent). We also loved the peaceful location that was only a 10-minute drive from Ballycastle.
Daniel
My stay was perfect. They are amazing hosts with great recommendations. I went into town based off of their recommendations and had a great dinner. I was prepared a tasty homemade breakfast that was the perfect start to my day. Highly recommend. Friendly, kind and thoughtful family.

Cozy B&B
We would highly recommend staying here with Micheál. It’s a lovely countryside property with an adorable friendly black cat outdoors. About 15 minutes from Ballycastle but everything in the region felt very accessible.
He was prompt on our check in at 4pm, showed us our room and made some suggestions for our trip - his top 2 suggestions ended up being our favourites of the trip! (Much better than the causeway.)
Our breakfast was lovely - fried egg, back bacon, sausage, tomato, beans, and toast with spreads. Tea and coffee and juice. There were cereals if you wanted. Very filling and delicious!
He was also very gracious when we accidentally left without paying and sorted it all out over email easily.
We would certainly stay here again!

As others have said, the host is very warm, helpful and interesting to listen to his love of culture and sharing life experiences. Excellent accommodation and beautiful views.

Lovely B&B
A beautiful B&B located near Ballycastle Northern Ireland. Friendly host and comfortable room.
Erin
The home was beautiful and the owner was very friendly and kind.
larry
The owners are great and welcoming. They have lots of suggestions on dinning, pubs and nearby attractions. Even gave advice on the route to take to get there (more scenic). The room was large and beautiful with a large private bathroom. We had a full breakfast every morning. This is a true bed and breakfast. We even learned some Irish words.
Anne
We stayed at this property for two nights as it is very convenient to all of the north and east coast attractions like Giants Causeway, Carrick-a-rede bridge, Friary, Dunluce and Kinmare Castles, and if you're a GOT fan, the lost village of Galboly and Dark Hedges were both close by as well. Our room was clean and tidy and had a double and a twin bed so would be good for a small family. Michael was very welcoming and gracious host and made several great recommendations for sights and local restaurants. The views from the property were amazing and its very quiet. It is not walkable for restaurants but they are a close drive of 10-12 minutes - we really enjoyed the Salthouse and O'Connors pub. A great stay and would book there again in future.
Monica
Very cute place to stay and rest. Beautiful surroundings and a great list of local recommendations
Carol-anne
Fantastic stay. Lovely hosts. Very knowledgeable about local area. Lovely en suite room. Would definitely stay again.
Thomas
Perfect location to explore the wonders of the Antrim coast. Our host Michael was engaging and even taught us a few words in the Irish language as a parting gift. A very pleasant experience with a hearty breakfast.
Alex
Friendly hoast, large comfortable room and great water pressure in shower.

One night in Ballycastle
Michael was a great host with good tips for things to see in the area that you normally wouldn’t. Our stay was very comfortable
Cammie
Amazing B&B - with an Irish language bonus!
Michael was an amazing host - happy to chat with us and to recommend restaurants and pubs in town, but also happy to give us our space. I enjoyed the chance to use my cúpla focal to converse as Gaeilge. Great room and amazing breakfast.
Krista
This place was fantastic! Rustic but close to pubs and restaurants. The owners were very knowledgeable about the area and had some superb suggestions for local sights I would have not found otherwise. Super clean and very comfortable
roberta
Very cozy!Mr Sands is an amazing host
William
What an amazing B&B the owners are so nice and the breakfast was just as amazing the bangers and bacon are so local they come from just a few farms away. I wish I would have booked another night.
janet
Teach an Cheoil was an amazing stay and experience. Our hosts were warm and welcoming and we were even invited to attend an Irish Music Trad Trail (pub hopping & music) in Ballycastle with the hosts who play several Irish instruments, teach Irish music and Irish language. They are the kind of people who change the world by bringing back and continuing Irish traditions. Teach an Cheoil is a serene beautiful place with a spacious room, large bathroom, great shower, and view of surrounding emerald fields full of sheep grazing. The sunsets over the ocean were gorgeous too! Breakfasts were home cooked and delicious. We had such a great experience at Teach an Cheoil. We will definitely be back but will stay longer next time! Mahalo Michéal!
Verified traveler
The accomodation felt absolutely nothing like the usual hotel accomodation (impersonal). It was set in beautiful surroundings and was a solely family run establishment. The said family were friendly and extremely helpful and I felt more like I was staying with my own family, only better! I would certainly highly recommend Teach an Cheoil to anyone wanting an extra special holiday experience.

Robert
This was a lovely hotel in a lovely location. Staff made wonderful breakfasts and were very helpful with local knowledge and services. Would highly recommend for a hotel in a nice quiet and scenic location. Thank you very much!
Peter
Clean but not comfy
Breakfast was poor with the only cereal being Rice Krispies and a choice of strawberry or apricot jam. In the fruit bowl there was one banana, one apple and two satsumas. The bedroom was cold and we had to ask for the heating to be put on and we also had to ask for some milk. There was only one hard backed chair so watching TV was from the bed and there was no communal lounge. On the positive side, the propietor was very welcoming and friendly.
Sue
What I would expect from a B&B. Host was very helpful. Setting was beautiful.
Peter
Scenic Location, Friendly owners
I had a pleasant 1 night stay at this B&B. I slept like a log in the comfy room and enjoyed the hearty breakfast.
Mark
Comfortable and value for money.
Quiet and pleasant location, and spacious room.
The shower room was rather small for a not-so-large man.

The place to stay near Ballycastle!
This B&B was great - quiet location, but only 10 mins drive from central Ballycastle. Friendly, informative and helpful hosts, large room and ensuite, lovely breakfast. Lovely music at times from owners who play traditional Irish music. Would highly recommend this stay.

Great accommodation outside Ballycastle
Got to hear the children practicing their music which we very much enjoyed. Lovely family. Our room was nice with all the comforts a person could want. Very clean! Michael gave us a list if things to see on the way to our next stop. Very good, thorough list that gave us super photo ops. We would highly recommend their home.
Helen
Peaceful and friendly
Located in the countryside just outside Ballycastle, this was a great base to explore this part of the causeway coastline.
Large, clean room. Good breakfast. Friendly owner full of tips.
Very good value for money.

Nothing Special
The host very nice and helpful but it was like staying at a friend house instead of a well run B&B. Grand father clock kept me up all night. Had to use a portable heater. I don't know why anyone else was impressed.
Jason
Serene location
Everything was perfect, we hadn't been at a bed and breakfast we would have missed the bay which is just over the hill. Rooms were clean well-equipped. The beds were as good as any we slept in Ireland, but they could use new mattresses. It's in a great spot to launch your adventures in Northern Ireland.

Wonderful Stay, Dogs Welcome, Will Come Back!
Wonderful host, the room had everything we needed and more (including coffee making facilities) and was nicely decorated and comfortable. Breakfast was really good, well behaved dogs welcome which is was a plus on the Emerald Isle. Amazing stay, wish we'd found you sooner and stayed longer, we will be back!

House of Music
The innkeeper is a musician, poet, and extremely pleasant person. As we ate breakfast, we chatted with him about art, music, and suggestions for our vacation. This was our first night in a B&B in this Ireland vacation, and it was one of the best.
